Thinks s/he gets paid by the post
Today, I heard the news that after exactly a year of my retirement, the entire 300+ people in my old division will be laid off. All their projects have been canceled. It was a bitter sweet moment. Bitter, b/c I have a lot of former employees and co-workers who are still working there. They are forced to change. Bitter, b/c the head of the division's ambition (without means to achieve) killed the division. Sweet, b/c the psychopath can't hurt his employees any more and they will hopefully find better future elsewhere. Sweet, b/c I had the foresight to quit a year ahead and not deal with the eventuality. A lot of my ex-employees and co-workers can RE if they so choose. One has contacted me already, saying he will retire. It was a bitter sweet moment for him as well.
